Adventure Sketchers brings art to life

03/06/2014 By All Mum Said 61 Comments

Trying to find interactive games that are educational and fun is often a hard task to accomplish; add in the fact that you want it for a 5 year old and you want them to love it adds another dimension of difficulty. I’m pretty impressed with myself because I have done it! I found a LeapFrog game called Adventure Sketchers for my sons LeapPad, it is innovative and brings their art to life. The kids love that it is interactive and they can record phrases that play in the game and then there is the pictures they create that appear while they are playing.

This is great for on-the-go or if you need 5 minutes quiet and the kids won’t even realise you are benefiting from it (they’ll think you are great for letting them play).  If you are looking for a game that entertains, encourages imagination, story telling and promotes learning then I recommend the LeapFrog Adventure Sketchers!

***********************

Enter below to win: 1 of 3 LeapFrog Adventure Sketchers! games. RRP $44.99 ea. (Total Prize Pool $134.97)

LeapPad tablet is required to play these games. LeapPad not included in prize.

**As the winners are chosen based on skill and not chance; you will be sharing for 0 extra entries. It’s good karma though and I’d love you to share the giveaway with friends and family**

Perfect Prep Machine {Review & Giveaway}

30/05/2014 By All Mum Said 35 Comments

Making the switch from breast to bottle can be tough sometimes for both mums and babies. Trying to get the same temperature as breast milk is often a struggle and makes the transition for babies that little bit harder. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a way to do this without any extra effort? Of course it would! And there is. The new product from Closer to Nature does exactly that! The Perfect Prep machine has been specifically designed to make bottles at the right serving temperature each and every time in less than 2 minutes. You read that right – less than 2 minutes!

I have found this machine fantastic for getting the milk to the perfect body temperature and even though my daughter is nearing her 1st birthday she loves nothing more than a bottle of milk first thing in the morning and to settle her before bed. The Perfect Prep has made preparing bottles even easier by dispensing the correct amount of water at the ideal temperature in under 2 minutes. It takes longer for the hot water to hit the tap in my kitchen than it does to make an entire bottle with this wonderful new product.

Before I opened the box and removed the machine I joked to my husband about it possibly being one of those items that you never knew you needed until you had it and as it turns out; this is one of them!! I love that it is ridiculously easy to use, it filters the water to remove impurities (without you having to lift a finger), it is compact, stylish and very practical as it is designed to fit most bottle shapes and sizes. The only thing I would change about it is the volume of the beep as it seems quite loud in the middle of night. This product is going to make parents lives that little bit easier by assisting them to make the perfect bottle for their baby.

Taking to the Sky with Air Hogs + GIVEAWAY

26/05/2014 By All Mum Said 58 Comments

I love it when I’m introduced to a new product especially when it is one that keeps the kids (and husbands) amused and occupied. It’s no secret all boys (and a lot of girls I’m sure) love remote control gadgets, planes, stunts, rockets and basically anything else that could possibly fly or hover. When I’m looking for something to entertain my boys or a gift for parties these are type of toy I look for. Air Hogs has been my go to brand for boys for a while now and their Air Hogs Skywinder has not disappointed. It swoops, loops, dives and flies. What more could you want?

It doesn’t use a million batteries which I love! It is perfect for inside use and won’t damage the walls/furniture. It is so unbelievably easy to use, simply pull the trigger and away you go. There is no trying to get it balanced or having to hold it steady, etc. The only downside I found to the Skywinder is that it is made of a foam type material so it isn’t extremely tough but with saying that it is durable enough to cop a beating from the ceiling that we forgot to turn off and come out in one piece – still working perfectly!

The Air Hogs Skywinder has been a huge hit in at our place and 2 lucky readers of Mad Mummas will have the chance to win one for their the stunt lover in their house.

******************

Enter below to win: 1 of 2 Air Hogs Skywinders (RRP $39.99 ea) – Total prize pool $79.98
